a New Flying Machine.
Boston Advertiser.

New York is soon TO be treated to some
experiments in flying machines. A COM
psny of sober and practical men claim
that they have solved the problem OF
eflal locomotion, and they intend to give
| exhibitions of their machine at the Amer.
lean Institute Fair, now in session.
The flying machines I speak of are to
be propelled by electricity. What the
fabric is built OF, or what it's plan of con-
struction is, do not know. All, If we
could but reduce aluminium easily and
cheaply, that would settle the business a.
once! This is perhaps the grandest "if''
that b. flies science to-day. Here is q
metal as strong as steel and light a.
wood, spd filing the world with is
abundance, and yet nobody Can resolve It
save at an expense which depriyes it OF
commercial usefulness. The largest
block of it in the world, l believe, Is the
trispgulsr cap which crowns the apex of
the Washington monument.
l am told that there are more inventors
at work on this aluminium puzzle than on
almost any other. Every few weeks We
hear q shout of "Eureka!" but somehow
the metal remains as scarce and costly as
before. could tell very pretty TO
nance Of aluminium if I wished, but l
won't. But the greatest romance of ali
will be the actual discovery If the way to
get it out of its sulks and into the service
of msn. Inst done, and we soau soon
be flying through the air, and doing about
as we please with nature generally.

The Joker in Poker.
New York Sur

It is becoming fashionable with poker
players in swell circles to use the joker.
1t is said that Lieutenant Phil Sheridan
is the sponsor for the practice. The
power of the sequence flush. however, is
not diminished by the use Of the joker
But with other 'hafds" the joker is dig
gun. For instance, if you have
three mines on the deal, draw two
cards, and one of them is the jker, the
"hand" is recognized as four mines. If
you have all but one OF straight and
draw the joker it com plefes the straight.
If you have tour OF flush and draw the
)ker you fill the flush. II you have four
of kind on the cal snd draw the Joker
it makes five Of kind. but even. the
FIVE of kind do not lessen the
power OF the sequence flush. This game
is now being played in private clubs, and
quick and disastrous havoc is MADE #
your pile ii you run against that jok- r
too often.

Terrell Roads,

Special to the Gazette
TERRELL, TEX, Nov. LIT was an as.
sured fact, st least so stated in localities
less than a hundred miles from Terrell,
that the Frisco would be built before this
time. 1t was almost certain work would
commence st Roberts by the 18TH of Sap-
TENDER last. The Terrell railroad COM
mittee gave out that such would not be
the case and thst no work would COM
mence until 1888, and that in direct oppo-
sition TO views Of men who professed to
have inside Information. The Terrell
committee was and is right. Recent rail-
road transactions set some things shoat,
and while there is no indication
Of new railroad work commenc-
ing for some time yet, but early in the
spring certain lines of road hitherto
mapped out in THE GAZETTE will doubt
less be built, and in more than one of
these lines Terrell will have lively in
terest. Assurances given our committee
Justify these state ments. These are not
new lines particularly, but extensions
that will be necessary to the more sue
cessiul working OF certain lines already in
and near the line of Texas. The commit
tee will be notified of any unusual com
motion in that direction, but the time of
such commotion is not now, though it
may come in the early part of 1888.

that could she but secure an opening she

in bringing this event about. Through

Result of the Inquest in ths Case CT Berthe
Hendricks at houston.
Special to the Gazette.
Houston, TEX, Nov. 19-The inquest
over the body of the young girl
BERTHE Hendricks, thought to have
been accidentally killed, has ended
to-day in the arrest of Frank Mormon, 8
twelve-yesr-old boy, charging him
with the murder Of the girl.
The only persons who saw
the killing were the mother
and sister OF Mormon, and they testified
that the mother in attempting to get the
rug upon which the gun was
resting, threw the gun to
the floor, discharging it, an
killing the girl. Several colored people
Tho were in the yard when the gun
was discharged, testified that the
woman rushed 10 the door
exclaimipg that Frank had shot BERTHE.
The Justice, after hearing the
evidence, bound the boy over in
the sum Of 500 to answer at
the next term of the criminal
court. The case is remarkable in many
respects. The boy who is charged with
doing the killing is small for
his age, twelve years old, and
is delicate looking. The
girl who was killed ives only ten years
old. The states witnesses showed no
motive for the deed.

GALVESTON, TEX. Nov. 19.-One OF the
worst railroad accidents that has occurred
IN Texas for several years happened about
IL O'Clock last night within nineteen
miles of Galveston, but several miles dis
tant from any telegraph station. The
accident occurred on the msin lire of the
Gulf, Colorado ana Santa Fe Railway neal
Hale's switch, where the north-bound
st. Louis express which left here
at 9:l5 crashed into an engine
drawing ten cars carrying water into he
city. The passenger train was runslhe
st a speed Of thirty miles an hour
When the frightful collision occurred the
water train was running ct rapid rate In
order to make the next station before the
passenger train arrived. The dense foe
prevented the headlights being seen,
and not until the engines
were within 100 feet of each
other did Engineer Hussy and Fireman
Hassett discover their danger. Instantly
hey both jumped but both are seriously
if not fatally injured. Engineer Hitch
cock and Fireman Alexander Of the water
train were instantly killed their bodies
being horribly mangled. As the engines
came together in their terrible embrace
they both rose high in the
air and then crashed through
each other demolishing everything IN
their path. TIE baggage ana express
car, which was well loaded with baggage
and mail matter, was entirely destroyed

Baspageman W II. REYNOLDS and EX-
press Messenger Jones Levy were in this
car at work when the collision occurred
They were rescued with great
d ficulty from the burning csr, both
badly bruised and burned. Engineer
Nike Hussy has a fractured skull
and otherwise hurt. II is thought he
cannot live, while Fireman Charles Has

The wounded are in the hospital here.

less saved the life of doz3ns of psssen-
gers, as it was completely telescoped by
the baggage car and after1aro
burned. Had this car not been
ahead of the other coaches, the
result would have been frightful
AS 1t was the passengers were badly
shaken up but none seriously injured.
General Manager Webster Snyder &C
counts for the accident on the ground
that Engineer Hitchcock had forgotten
about the express and paid the forfeit Of
his life. The accident inficts pecuniary
loss on the company of about $4,000
Engineer Hitchcock lived at Temple and
WAS only thirty years old.

WICHITA FALLS, TEX Nov I9.-Msjor
Foreman and Mr.. E. W. Heoge arrived
here today from Fort Sill in company
with E. L Preston and wife. E. L. Pres
ton is the locating engineer of the Rock
Island Railroad in the Indian Territory,
having brought his wife here to remain
the guest of Msjor Foreman until he TO
ishes locating the road to this point. The
line is already located to point about
six miles east of Fort Sill, from which
point preliminaries are being run in the
direction of the termination of the WITCH
ita and Windfeld Railroad at Red river.
They expect to have the line located to
this point in about four weeks, or BY
Christmas at any rate. The point at
which the road is now located will be the
nearest point to Fort Sill. The projected
line tends down the west side the divide
between Besver and Cache creek, and
will probably cross Cache creek about
half mile below the cohfiaence of 4 .st
